- Interpretación biológica acerca de la domesticación del pato criollo (Cairina Moschata) Enrique G. Angulo C. Multidisciplinarias (Ciencias Sociales) This research discusses the domestication process of the muscovy duck (Cairina moschata) within the context of Pre-Columbian cultures. This study contributes new ethno-cultural and biological information and interprets it on the basis of historical sources. This research highlights the use of Cairina moschata to control insects and suggests as the main reason for its inclusion in the human domestic sphere. Insects are considered as an environmental determinant that results in a specific cultural response through the domestication of that species. This process is postulated to have occurred in the tropical and sub-tropical rainforest of the Chaco region, presently shared by Bolivia, Paraguay and Argentina. 1998 artículo científico 0303-7495 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=12627102 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=126 Bulletin de l'Institut français d'études andines application/pdf Instituto Francés de Estudios Andinos Bulletin de l'Institut français d'études andines (Perú) Num.1 Vol.27
